#martinlewis Readily available and cost-effective technologies already exist to allow anyone, not just "sophisticated consumers", to benefit from TOU tariffs and move the energy market away from its current crude state.
@happygeek A heads up that the Eufy Security web site (and from what I can tell their entire back-end operation) has been down since the early hours today. It’s brought many/most home security systems to a stop. No news about it anywhere from what I can tell
Ministers to relax rules about building small modular reactors (SMRs) thetimes.com/uk/politics/art… - is this just hot air? You can give more room for fairies to dance, but that doesn’t make them real. Here I explain how SMRs don’t exist as a concept davidtoke.substack.com/p/why…

My iPhone updated to iOS 18 overnight. Spent several hours fixing gmail (still not entirely sorted), and now disabled the ghastly dark icons that show up by default when it gets dark. Why do Apple continually have to fix things that weren’t broken in the first place? 🤷🏻♂️😖

As a matter of fact, France did something analogous to this with the relocation outside Paris of the renowned market of Les Halles, in the years 60s and 70s of last century.
Well I guess we’ll all have to wait and see what the consequences are for what’s happened in the US. Musk has got what he wanted: careful what you wish for might be his epitaph. We’ll see: what do I or anyone else know?
